Was looking to buy in Lake Oswego but chose HV. It's so safe and clean. And the city is well run. Right now the main park is getting new sports fields, the already awesome library is expanding and I see improvements coming for the Scott Creek trail and Southern Lites Park. I run up Scouters Mtn. And Talbert all the time. A little worried about all the new homes being built. May make Sunnyside congested or push away the wildlife critters I love.
Happy Valley is a very family-friendly city filled with diverse neighborhoods. It's safe with low crime, and the HVPD has quick response times. There are loads of job opportunities, though I'd like it if the companies were more efficient in their hiring process. Some companies are hiring but don't employ. There's a specific street where I'd like higher police activity due to suspicious activity, however, Happy Valley is otherwise a recommendable city to live in
I enjoyed the parks and neighborhoods. Most of the residents are friendly and quiet. Everything is close together, schools, restaurants, grocery stores, gas stations. It is walk-accessible to most places. Downfalls are te traffic has gotten congested and they are building lots of houses and apartments.
